Abstract
Background: In endemic regions of sub-Saharan Africa, malaria during pregnancy (MiP) is a major preventable
cause of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. Current recommended MiP prevention and control includes
intermittent preventive treatment (IPTp), distribution of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) and appropriate case
management. This article explores the social and cultural context to the uptake of these interventions at four sites
across Africa.
Methods: A comparative qualitative study was conducted at four sites in three countries: Ghana, Malawi and Kenya.
Individual and group interviews were conducted with pregnant women, their relatives, opinion leaders, other
community members and health providers. Observations, which focused on behaviours linked to MiP prevention
and treatment, were also undertaken at health facilities and in local communities.
Results: ITNs were generally recognized as important for malaria prevention. However, their availability and use
differed across the sites. In Malawi and Kenya, ITNs were sought-after items, but there were complaints about availability. In central Ghana, women saved ITNs until the birth of the child and they were used seasonally in northern
Ghana. In Kenya and central Ghana, pregnant women did not associate IPTp with malaria, whereas, in Malawi and
northern Ghana, IPTp was linked to malaria, but not always with prevention. Although IPTp adherence was common
at all sites, whether delivered with directly observed treatment or not, a few women did not comply with IPTp often
citing previous side effects. Although generally viewed as positive, experiences of malaria testing varied across the
four sites: treatment was sometimes administered in spite of a negative diagnosis in Ghana (observed) and Malawi
(reported). Despite generally following the advice of healthcare staff, particularly in Kenya, personal experience, and
the availability and accessibility of medication including anti-malarials influenced MiP treatment.
Conclusion: Although ITNs were valued as malaria prevention, health messages could address issues that reduce
their use during pregnancy in particular contexts. The impact of previous side effects on adherence to IPTp and
anti-malarial treatment regimens during pregnancy also requires attention. Overtreatment of MiP highlights the
need to monitor the implementation of MiP case management guidelines.

Background
In endemic regions of sub-Saharan Africa, malaria during
pregnancy (MiP) is a major preventable cause of maternal
and infant morbidity and mortality [1]. Malaria during
pregnancy compounds or provokes anaemia, which, when
severe, increases the risk of maternal death (estimated at
around 10,000 deaths annually [2]). Low birth weight
(linked to around 100,000 annual infant deaths in Africa
[2]), pre-term delivery, congenital infection and reproductive loss are also linked to MiP [3]. Nonetheless, in spite of
its associated high burden of morbidity and mortality,
MiP was, until recently, recognized as a neglected area of
research [4].
Current recommended MiP prevention and control
strategies in areas of stable moderate to high malaria transmission include the administration of intermittent preventive treatment (IPTp) with sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine
(SP), distribution of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs)
and appropriate case management [5]. Despite the progress made in the last decade, the coverage of IPTp and
ITNs amongst pregnant African women remains inadequate [6]. For proper case management, the most appropriate treatment depends on the malaria species, severity
of infection, local patterns of drug resistance, drug availability and gestational age [7]. This, combined with incomplete MiP surveillance data across sub-Saharan Africa [5],
complicates estimates of appropriate case management.
Nevertheless, given the insufficient availability of diagnostic
tests and artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT)
[5] (recommended as first-line treatment for MiP during
the second and third trimester), case management is likely
to be sub-optimal.
In response to the challenges of MiP prevention and
control, a research consortium of 47 partner institutions
in 32 countries, was established and is currently conducting a wide range of scientific activities in Africa,
Asia, Australasia (Papua New Guinea) and South America
[8]. The MiP Consortium takes a multi-disciplinary approach to MiP, bringing together immunologists, epidemiologists, public health experts and social scientists.
This paper draws on the results of an anthropological
programme of research that forms part of the consortiums Public Health Impact Group.
The overall goal of the anthropological research carried out under the auspices of the MiP Consortium is to
contribute to the development and implementation of
appropriate MiP interventions by gaining an in-depth
understanding of the social and cultural context of MiP.
A review of previously conducted research identified
four broad topics that influence the uptake of MiP interventions [9]: concepts of malaria and risk in pregnancy;
attitudes towards malaria prevention and treatment; perceptions of antenatal care (ANC) services; and structural
factors. These four themes have been widely explored by

(Northern Ghana, in-depth interview with a pregnant
women between 20 and 25 years old, one child)
Generally though, according to healthcare staff and
pregnant women, even without DOT and even though
they may have been unaware about the name or purpose
of the medication, women took the SP when it was given
to them. This was even the case in both sites in Ghana,
where women had to buy water to swallow the tablets
from vendors in health facilities for a small fee (US
$0.05) that women viewed as an insignificant part of the
total cost of ANC (including transport costs etc.). Indeed, during ANC visits, women followed instructions
from healthcare staff that provided the interventions
(see [11] for further details regarding ANC attendance).

Across the four sites, all respondent types viewed biomedicine as the primary treatment option for malaria,
particularly severe malaria. Although some herbal remedies were described, respondents reported their use to
be infrequent. In Malawi, references to non-biomedical
treatments for malaria were very scarce. In Kenya, poverty was said to be a reason for pregnant women using
herbal remedies as a last resort for malaria. In central
Ghana, herbal malaria remedies were used, particularly
in rural areas by uninsured adults (to avoid the costs of
both transport and medical care) and on other occasions
for cases of mild malaria in addition to biomedical treatments. At this site, the use of non-biomedical remedies
during pregnancy was common to ensure a safe delivery
and a healthy baby. However, no remedy specifically for
MiP was reported. In northern Ghana, adults and children were regularly given herbal malaria treatments, but
pregnant women did not use them because of their bitter taste, which was viewed as a cause of miscarriage.
I: Is there herbal medicine for paa (malaria)?
R: Yes it is there, but in this community they hardly give
herbs to pregnant women, because they are afraid,
they dont know what is inside the stomach.
I: If you are not pregnant and you have paa, can you
use the local medicine?
R: Yes, you can use the soli, a long tree, and boiled
neem leaves. You use it to cover yourself, drink and
bathe.

woman, more than 35 years old, 4 children)

Discussion
Across all the sites, respondents recognized that sleeping
under an ITN was a way of preventing malaria. Even
though respondents at all sites offered additional explanations (such as poor hygiene) for a bout of malaria (or
the local illness that overlapped with biomedically defined malaria (see [10] for further details), mosquitoes
were reported to be the main cause. The connections
that respondents made between ITNs use and malaria
prevention were therefore unsurprising. Malaria was also
viewed as a common disease for pregnant women, and
considered to be a cause (along with other contributing
factors) of miscarriage [10].
In addition, negative attitudes towards ITNs were rare
and there were no specific objections to their use during
pregnancy. This finding, in varied social and cultural
contexts with different mechanisms of ITN distribution,
contrasts with several previous studies that have highlighted health concerns linked to ITN use during pregnancy, particularly with regard to the impact of the
insecticide treatments on the unborn child [22-25].
These studies were carried out prior to the distribution
of long-lasting ITNs and it was often the insecticide, and
process of re-treatment, that provoked such concerns.

The strengths of this study are intertwined with the anthropological approach: fieldwork over a one to two year
period enabled observations to be carried out to triangulate the data that respondents shared with the research
team and enabled women to be interviewed multiple
times over the course of their pregnancy to develop rapport, cross-check previous responses and to monitor
their experiences of care over the course of a pregnancy
with a follow-up post-delivery. However, the findings,
Page 11 of 13
Conclusions
Respondents generally valued ITNs as malaria prevention, however, availability and cost were barriers to ITNs
ownership. Sleeping arrangements, climatic conditions
and prioritizing infants led to inconsistent ITN use during pregnancy. Health messages could address certain issues, for example, if ITNs are left unused during
pregnancy so that they are new items to mark the birth
of a child.
In contrast, awareness of IPTp varied notably across
the sites and, together with past experience of side effects, low awareness contributed, to non-adherence. Although IPTp was not always delivered under DOT,
adherence was common and this was linked to womens
overall attempts to follow the instructions of health staff
and their positive evaluation of ANC as a package of
interventions.
Malaria diagnostic tests were not always available, but
confirming a malaria diagnosis through a blood test was
generally valued. However, there were examples of overtreatment in Ghana and Malawi: in Ghana, this resulted
from misinterpretation of national policy, which illustrates the need for monitoring of local implementation.
Instance of self-treatment and non-compliance with prescribed treatment courses were linked to the broad local
illnesses that overlapped with malaria, the cost and availability of anti-malarials at health facilities and individual
preferences based on past and current experience of
the drugs. Health messages should therefore also address
adherence to prescribed anti-malarials as well as discouraging self-treatment.

Abstrak
Latar Belakang: Di daerah endemik sub-Sahara Afrika, malaria selama kehamilan (MIP)
adalah dicegah utama penyebab kesakitan dan kematian ibu dan bayi. Direkomendasikan
pencegahan dan pengendalian MIP saat ini termasuk pengobatan intermiten pencegahan
(IPTp), distribusi insektisida kelambu (ITN) dan kasus yang tepat pengelolaan. Artikel ini
membahas konteks sosial dan budaya untuk penyerapan intervensi ini di empat lokasi di
seluruh Afrika.
Metode: Sebuah studi kualitatif komparatif dilakukan di empat lokasi di tiga negara: Ghana,
Malawi dan Kenya. Wawancara individu dan kelompok dilakukan dengan wanita hamil,
keluarga mereka, pemimpin opini, lainnya anggota masyarakat dan penyedia layanan
kesehatan. Pengamatan, yang berfokus pada perilaku yang terkait dengan pencegahan MIP
dan pengobatan, juga dilakukan di fasilitas kesehatan dan masyarakat setempat.
Hasil: ITN umumnya diakui sebagai penting untuk pencegahan malaria. Namun,
ketersediaan dan penggunaan berbeda di seluruh situs. Di Malawi dan Kenya, ITN yang
dicari item, tapi ada keluhan tentang memanfaatkan- kemampuan. Di tengah Ghana, wanita
diselamatkan ITN sampai kelahiran anak dan mereka digunakan musiman di utara Ghana. Di
Kenya dan tengah Ghana, wanita hamil tidak mengasosiasikan IPTp dengan malaria,
sedangkan, di Malawi dan utara Ghana, IPTp dikaitkan dengan malaria, tetapi tidak selalu
dengan pencegahan. Meskipun IPTp kepatuhan adalah umum di semua situs, apakah
disampaikan dengan pengobatan diamati secara langsung atau tidak, beberapa wanita tidak
mematuhi IPTp sering mengutip efek samping sebelumnya. Meskipun umumnya dipandang
sebagai positif, pengalaman pengujian malaria bervariasi di seluruh empat lokasi: pengobatan
kadang-kadang diberikan meskipun diagnosis negatif di Ghana (diamati) dan Malawi
(dilaporkan). Meskipun umumnya mengikuti saran dari staf kesehatan, terutama di Kenya,
pengalaman pribadi, dan ketersediaan dan aksesibilitas obat - termasuk anti-malaria dipengaruhi pengobatan MIP.
Kesimpulan: Meskipun ITN yang dinilai sebagai pencegahan malaria, pesan kesehatan bisa
mengatasi masalah yang mengurangi penggunaannya selama kehamilan dalam konteks
tertentu. Dampak dari efek samping sebelumnya pada kepatuhan terhadap IPTp dan rejimen
pengobatan anti malaria selama kehamilan juga memerlukan perhatian. Overtreatment dari
MIP menyoroti perlu memantau pelaksanaan pedoman manajemen kasus MIP.

Metode
Hasil yang disajikan dalam artikel ini
diambil dari Studi banding dilakukan di
empat lokasi di tiga negara. Penelitian ini
dilakukan oleh tim dari repencari yang
anggotanya berdasarkan seluruh situs dan di
Barcelona (Spanyol).
Pengaturan
Studi ini dimasukkan satu negara dari
masing-masing tiga wilayah utama SubSahara Afrika: Ghana di West Afrika, Kenya
di Afrika Timur dan Malawi di Southern
Afrika. Dua situs dengan kekhususan
regional yang penting dipilih di Ghana
karena
beberapa
alasan:
untuk
mengumpulkan Data dalam setidaknya satu
situs dari masing-masing MIP Konsorsium
pengobatan dan pencegahan kegiatan
utama; untuk menyertakan daerah dengan
pola yang berbeda penularan malaria; dan
Diskusi
Di semua situs, responden mengakui bahwa
tidur di bawah ITN adalah cara mencegah
malaria. Bahkan meskipun responden di
semua situs yang ditawarkan penjelasan yang
tambahan negara (seperti kebersihan yang
buruk) untuk serangan malaria (atau penyakit
lokal yang tumpang tindih dengan
debiomedis malaria didenda (lihat [10] untuk
informasi lebih lanjut), nyamuk dilaporkan
menjadi penyebab utama. Koneksi bahwa
responden dibuat antara ITN menggunakan
dan
malaria
pencegahan
karenanya
mengejutkan. Malaria
juga
dipandang
sebagai penyakit yang umum bagi wanita
hamil, dan dianggap sebagai penyebab
(bersama dengan berkontribusi lainnya
faktor) keguguran [10].
Selain itu, sikap negatif terhadap ITN
jarang dan tidak ada keberatan khusus untuk
penggunaan mereka selama kehamilan.
Temuan ini, dalam bervariasi sosial dan
budaya konteks dengan mekanisme yang
berbeda dari distribusi ITN, kontras dengan
beberapa studi sebelumnya yang memiliki
tinggi masalah kesehatan terang terkait
dengan ITN menggunakan selama kehamilan
yang nancy, terutama yang berkaitan dengan
dampak dari perawatan insektisida pada anak
yang belum lahir [2 2- 25]. Studi ini
dilakukan sebelum distribusi ITN dari tahan
lama dan itu sering insektisida, dan Proses
pengobatan
ulang,
yang
memicu
kekhawatiran tersebut. Satu studi multi-situs
di Kenya menyoroti tambahan sikap negatif
terhadap ITN termasuk keluhan tentang
kampanye distribusi menargetkan wanita
hamil dan bayi [26]. Komentar seperti itu
dikaitkan dengan kurangnya a informasi
yang
menghubungkan
peningkatan
kerentanan
malaria
dengan
ITN
distribusi [26]. Sebaliknya, responden dalam
hal ini Studi sering disorot peningkatan
risiko wanita hamil malaria [1 0] dan tidak
ada komentar negatif seperti tentang
menargetkan ibu hamil yang ditemui.
Makna yang lebih luas terkait dengan ITN
memiliki varying implikasi untuk mereka
gunakan. Di tengah Ghana, wanita dilihat
ITN sebagai konsumen yang baik dan karena
itu meninggalkan mereka tidak terpakai
selama kehamilan, tergantung mereka untuk
pertama waktu untuk menandai kelahiran
anak. Responden Kenya juga dihargai ITN
sebagai barang rumah tangga dengan
menggunakan beberapa, seperti melindungi
tanaman dari burung. Namun, dalam hal ini
konteks, penggunaan beberapa dari ITN
tidak tentu mencegah wanita hamil dari tidur
di bawah mereka. Temuan ini adalah
pengingat tentang bagaimana-teknologi
kesehatan gies (dalam hal ini, dimaksudkan
oleh desainer untuk malaria pencegahan)
Kesimpulan
Responden umumnya dihargai ITN malaria
pencegahan, bagaimanapun, ketersediaan
dan biaya yang hambatan untuk ITN
kepemilikan. Pengaturan tidur, kondisi iklim
dan memprioritaskan bayi menyebabkan
ketidakkonsistenan
ITN
menggunakan
during kehamilan. Pesan kesehatan bisa
mengatasi adalah- tertentu menggugat,
misalnya, jika ITN yang tidak digunakan
selama kehamilan sehingga mereka item
baru untuk menandai kelahiran seorang anak.
Sebaliknya, kesadaran IPTp bervariasi
terutama di situs dan, bersama dengan
pengalaman masa lalu dari sisi effects,
rendahnya kesadaran berkontribusi, untuk
non-kepatuhan meskipun IPTp tidak selalu
disampaikan di bawah DOT, kepatuhan
adalah umum dan ini terkait dengan
perempuan upaya keseluruhan untuk
mengikuti petunjuk dari petugas kesehatan
dan evaluasi positif dari ANC sebagai paket
intervensi.
